Welsh Rabbit Reviews

This classic combination of melted cheese and toasted bread is also called Welsh rarebit  an attempt to dignify the original (and slightly silly) name. For best visual appeal, use an aged yellow Cheddar for the sauce.

I used this recipe to make Rabbit Eggs (a fun idea for Easter morning) Place about 3 tablespoons of the rarebit on a half of toasted English muffin. Place a poached egg on top then cover with remaining rarebit. An optional thin slice of tomato and a couple of slices of bacon under the egg adds a nice touch.

This is very similar to my own recipe and its a great one. I never tried using milk (at first I shuddered at the idea of combining beer and milk) but it adds a creamniness that my personal recipe lacked. A keeper.

This is excellent and needs no improvement. If you like this, try a recipe called Rinktum Ditty, a Welsh rendition of the same type. Also, make sure you use grated sharp Cheddar cheese, not the stuff in bags - it makes a difference.

When the recipe calls for aged cheddar, use it for gosh sakes! Convinience food (packaged, shredded cheese) is not allowed in my house with all of those anti-caking agents and junk that you feed your kids. Slow down, grate your own cheese (it doesn't take too long with the proper tools!), and make this dish because it is easy and filled with calcium.
